American Jews are becoming more conservative

The ME in my post describes a hard line Calvinist, me. The fellow Freepers that I met that day gave me hope that America is not entirely insane.

[McGavin999]

Ha Ha Ha. I see what you did there

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

I don’t know about being conservative but their Democratic political allies are plotting a holocaust part deux.

[RegulatorCountry]

This is happening to an extent in the Protestant Christian world as well. The liberals don’t reproduce and there’s little in the way of belief or principle to hold them there. The conservatives do reproduce and do believe.

>>Probably because the loudest ones in hollywood are heard instead of some of the great conservative writers.

On that, if you’re not reading Daniel Greenfield and his Sultan Knish blog, you’re messing up. Highly recommended.

about time they did...

[utahagen]

Thanks. Wow. That's really stunning. Although I am not Jewish, I have many Jewish friends, and most of them are Reform Jews. While I've noticed that the Bar/Bat Mitzvahs I've attended didn't put much emphasis on God, I think even in NYC and the NYC suburbs, where I live, it would have shocked people if the Bar/Bat Mitzvah boy/girl had disavowed God from the Bimah. (Did I write that correctly?) Aside from being appalled as a believer in God, I think allowing that was a mistake from a marketing perspective. At this point, the only group of American Jews that is growing is Orthodox Jews. Non-Orthodox Jews are intermarrying at a rate of over 50%. Even assuming that all non-Orthodox Jews now acknowledge the children of Jewish mothers OR fathers to be Jewish; and even assuming that all intermarried couples are raising their children Jewish; only one in four children of intermarried couples identifies himself or herself as Jewish. So...if belief in God is now optional for Jews — however one defines being Jewish — that's one less reason for someone to remain Jewish.

Oy vai!

The sad thing about that also is that the Jews in Germany made excuses for the laws that the Nazis were passing against the Jews...

Just like they are doing for the moslems evil treatment...

History is repeating itself...

[Ted Grant]

No they’re not.

“The one thing the limbs keep forgetting as they worship abortion, the are not replacing themselves”

That’s why they need illegal alien voters.

Also why NAMBLA recruits.

Most womyn seem comfortable with turkey basters and/or anonymous/non-existent fathers.

"When you no longer believe in G-d, please stop calling yourself “Jewish”."

I would go one further: Please stop calling yourself human. That anyone would applaud such a stance in synagogue is pure evil.

[blackbetty59]

I don’t even understand why we are talking about this. Obviously, we have set fire to every jew, and every black we have ever known. We have destroyed them, and they can’t even get a decent food stamp or tax exemption. Or, like Anthony Weiner, a plea bargain for molesting 15 year olds.

[dhs12345]

The efforts of our betters have been somewhat successful. And without a strong foundation in faith, there are many “distractions” that will take its place.

Marx’s point that (paraphrasing) “religion is the opiate of the masses” reflected his belief that authoritarian governments like Communism are in direct competition with religion and faith (for the hearts and minds) and it is necessary to destroy religious faith to succeed.

Yeah, the Orthodox are conservative.

I better hike the cuffs of my pants up -- the bullsh!t is really deep around here on this one.

[rrrod]

Not a chance......look at S Florida. Palm and Broward counties have more libscum than the whole country combined

[tbw2]

The conservatives in the US were a small minority becoming a majority over literally generations.

[PapaBear3625]

Someone had to pry them away from socialism. Obama-Kerry finally did it.

See my tag line ( "Big government is attractive to those who think that THEY will be in control of it" ).

What has been happening is that Black Lives Matter and the Muslim faction of the Dem party is making it increasingly clear that Jews will be ousted from positions of power in the Left. This produces an adjustment in viewpoint.

[Savage Beast]

IT'S ABOUT TIME!

[Uncle Miltie]

For those of you still following the conversation, I also had the displeasure of attending a Purim Festival at a Reformed Synagogue in Seattle in about 2000 in which the evil guy “Haman” in the Book of Esther was fully replaced in each and every case by:

“BUSH”!

[utahagen]

Wow. There must having been people there (in addition to you) who were offended by this...?
